Popular flowering vine in a variety of heights dependent on variety with pointed, light green, compound leaves. Flowers bloom anywhere from late spring to early fall with single or double flowers in a range of colors such as white, pink, red and purple. Great for trellises, containers or intertwined with small shrubs.



Homeowner Growing and Maintenance Tips:

Prefers fertile, moist soil, rich in organic matter with good drainage and full to partial sun. Keep roots cool by under planting or mulching. There are three pruning groups that dictate when and by how much to trim the plants, this varies by variety. Fertilize with a low nitrogen fertilizer.
